Transforming into twin actresses, offering a glimpse into the cutthroat world of entertainment.

Overall, it's all positive reviews!

This film, though not a comedy during the Lunar New Year season, still delivered an exceptional viewing experience.

So much so that audience members who had bought tickets for other comedy films in the theater were also drawn in by the discussions.

Without him.

The keywords that viewers were discussing were really captivating.

Phrases like "zombie," "Red Queen," "Zhu Xudan is super cool," "You Mingyue is incredibly arrogant," and "You Mingyue has long legs" are all very captivating and irresistible.

"I really want to see it."

"Me too."

"Let's skip shopping this afternoon and watch Resident Evil instead."

"Right on my mind!"

"..."

Similar sounds were heard repeatedly in various cinemas.

Online, word-of-mouth began to spread as soon as the first screening ended.

……

Tianguang Entertainment.

Lin Zhi was in a good mood, humming a little tune, sipping his wine, and smoking a cigarette at the same time.

They lived a carefree and leisurely life.

He has received good news from the cinema chains he is working with.

Tianguang Entertainment's 500 million yuan investment in the film "A Comedy Family" has achieved excellent attendance and received very positive reviews from audiences...

This means that as long as the film doesn't suffer from poor word-of-mouth in the coming days, its box office performance is something to look forward to.

It is very possible that it will surpass "My People, My Mother" to win the Spring Festival box office, and it may even win the opening day box office champion!

The opening day data and word-of-mouth of a film are extremely important, and theaters will take the opening day data into serious consideration when scheduling subsequent screenings.

Like a snowball rolling downhill, the better a movie's data and word-of-mouth are, the more likely it is to become a blockbuster and achieve high box office returns.

High box office revenue means a high return on investment.

Those small films that don't take off can't snowball; they end up with very poor box office returns and quietly disappear from theaters. Most of them don't even recoup their costs.

Of course, there are also movies that are not popular on their opening day but become popular after a period of time, but such movies are very rare.

"Not every movie can become a dark horse." Lin Zhi took a sip of his drink, and the next second, his brows furrowed into a deep frown.

He thought of You Mingyue and their film and television works.

Those twins are dark horses in almost every film and television work they appear in! Whether it's a movie, a TV series, or an anime.

So far, I haven't lost a single time!

"This is weird! This is really weird!" Lin Zhi shook his head, a cold glint in his eyes. "Fortunately, I was prepared for this. Trying to create another dark horse movie? Heh, not so easy!"

"I'm going to make sure you don't even recoup your costs... You'll look pretty when you cry, won't you?" Lin Zhi muttered to himself, laughing in a lewd manner.

In his view, although there are many films in the Spring Festival season, only two can be considered as competitors: "My Mother and I" and "Resident Evil". The rest are just mediocre.

Among them, "Me and My Mother" has a large amount of capital behind it, and it would be unwise to start a war rashly. The only way is to confront it head-on with fair and square means.

But Resident Evil...

Does Youmingyue have any powerful backers?

No!

Is Youmingyue financially well-funded?

That's far from enough!

Picking the weakest link makes eliminating Resident Evil, a competitor, relatively easy.

Sudden.

The cell phone rings.

Lin Zhi picked up his phone and answered it casually. Immediately, a panicked voice came from the other end of the line: "President Lin, something terrible has happened!"

Lin Zhi's face immediately darkened.

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, saying such unlucky things—is this a curse on me, or is it a curse on me?

When the work resumed on the seventh day of the Lunar New Year, the first thing they did was fire this person for stepping into the company with their left foot first.

How unlucky.

Even after two dogs beeped, they still couldn't calm down.

Lin Zhi's mentality was slightly shattered.

"What is it? Speak properly!" He suppressed his anger, took a deep breath, and said. Generally speaking, during the New Year, unless it was something extremely important, this subordinate wouldn't be so tactless...

On the other end of the phone, the voice came again: "No, no, no, Mr. Lin, I didn't say something happened to you. You're fine. You're the engine of our company, how could something happen to you? Without you, the company would slow down. I meant..."

"Get to the point!" Lin Zhi was so angry his liver hurt. Damn it, he forced himself to endure it, and reaffirmed his determination to fire this person as soon as he returned to work on the seventh day of the new year.

That's outrageous! Is this how you flatter someone?

This is like trying to flatter someone who's only made a fool of themselves.

Wait a minute, something's not right.

"Mr. Lin, it's like this. Didn't you ask me to find some influential film critics to write some negative reviews of 'Resident Evil'? We had everything going well, and we even paid the deposit, but now many of them have suddenly changed their minds, are unwilling to write, and have returned their deposits."

Lin Zhi: "Why! Are they stupid? Why wouldn't they make money?"

"They said they weren't good enough at writing and couldn't write it."

Lin Zhi: "..."

His mouth twitched instantly, he almost had a heart attack, and he died on the spot.

这特么算什么狗屁拒首/发,群9。8"0？2。0@5ヘ8?5♀6绝理由！！！

Even elementary school students' excuses for taking leave are more plausible than this!

You bunch of film critics who make a living with your pens are telling me I'm not a good writer???

"Add more money!" Lin Zhi thought for a moment and decided to use his financial power. He didn't believe these fools would turn down money. In his opinion, it was nothing more than those film critics being greedy and wanting to make more money.

The voice on the other end of the phone said, "We added it, but they still don't want to write version 1.0!"

Lin Zhi took a deep drag on his cigarette.

Not right.

Do these troublemakers want to rebel?

They actually refused the silver offered by the master?

"And..." the subordinate added on the other end of the phone.

"And what??" A bad feeling arose in Lin Zhi's heart. For some reason, he felt a little panicked at this moment.

"Not only did they not write any negative reviews, they even started praising Resident Evil..." The subordinate's voice trailed off at the end, and he made a face that looked worse than crying.

Lin Zhi exclaimed in shock: "What!!!"

His eyes widened, his face filled with disbelief.

My mental state completely collapsed in an instant!

I paid them to watch Resident Evil and write a negative review, but instead they wrote a positive review for Resident Evil!!!

Inverted!

This is a complete rebellion!

Chapter 345 The whole internet is buzzing! A pioneering work in the zombie genre!

After hanging up the phone, Lin Zhi immediately logged onto Weibo.

Unsurprisingly, at this moment, Weibo is filled with discussions about You Mingyue and "Resident Evil," with their popularity far exceeding that of "The Family Comedy" and "Me and My Mother."

The top trending topic was also about "Resident Evil":

[Youmingyue pioneered the zombie genre; note that these are zombies, not ghouls!]

The comments below it were numerous, like boiling water, creating a lively atmosphere.

"After watching it, I only have one word to say: Awesome!"

"Absolutely stunning!"

"Brothers and sisters, I highly recommend this movie to you all. If you don't like it, you can come and kill me!"

"This is mind-blowing! I never imagined that we Chinese could make such a great sci-fi film!"

"High-energy throughout, I recommend wearing diapers to watch it, because you probably won't want to miss a single scene and won't want to go to the bathroom!"
